Fallsfall,
You are working so hard. Look at you still working to figure out what happened with your T. I admire you, especially because of the added pain of your T's reaction. I tend to agree with the others, that validation was warranated, but I guess I can also see it from your T's perspective.But again, you did very good work, and it made me jump up and down for you. I know I jump up and down for myself once I get past the emotional part of figuring something like that out on my own.
Which reminds me. You talked of it feeling mechanical in the session. I think it is hard to recreate those "aha!" moments after the fact. I had a similar experience I was dying to talk to my T about, but in session, it seemed like more "old news" and we moved on to other stuff. Perhaps your T just missed out on the importance of it because it happened prior, and you had moved past some of the emotion and were now more in thinking mode?
Thinking of you,
gg
